I think most dealers get a detailer in to do the new stuff , its the service washes i tend to avoid

 

Anyway picked it up this morning , 5 hour round trip thanks to accidents , traffic and roadworks but drives very nice , pretty pokey especially off the mark and drives like a much bigger car and its uber responsive

Also fitted a Whiteline rear anti roll bar since there is not one fitted as stock

Had the alignment done as well just to make sure its ok for now , thinking of getting a new front anti roll bar and then having the geometry done properly

Fairly stock engine wise , got a few more goodies ie wind deflectors and mudflaps and stock parts/ options like storage bins under the seats, a sunglasses holder also thinking of retro fitting Bluetooth and climate control as both appear to be around €400 all in

No i didnt , i had expected to see one under there though , its a extremely common mod.When stock the car had a tendency to feel like it was going to lift the inside wheels on even modest cornering , especially downhill with less weight on the rear , whether the arb or lowering springs impacted this most i dont know but it does feel more confidence inspiring on the rear

Wow cant believe its been almost a year , not quite hit 5000 miles yet but gave her a clean today well full detail really which I finished off today with a second coat of Supernatural Hybrid and then the Supernatural acrylic spray on top

 

Still enjoying it , wish it was a little better on fuel the best I've had to date is 38mpg , seem to get 33-35 average and maybe 28mpg around town , I do enjoy it though and stretch its legs on a regular basis so my driving style doesn't help but it does go very well truth be told I reckon up to 70 or 80 it might be ahead on the Skyline

 

The black roof suffers due to woodpigeons sitting on the TV aerial and crapping on it so i gave that some extra tlc
